Chapter 439: Crime Hunting Illustrations 2 (11)
Thinking of this, Jiang Feng took out his mobile phone. He couldn't think of what to buy for a moment, so he simply ordered a big cake.
Since he saw that other people sent gifts, he decided to try something different and send food. It was just a temporary solution. As for the real gift... there was no rush. There was still time to give it next time.
For a moment, the scene was harmonious, until...
"Teacher Shen, I don't mean to discourage you. Even if Xiao Yimo is your biological daughter, her custody is in the hands of her mother. According to the procedure, we must notify her and ask her to come and pick her up in person before we can release her."
After delivering the gift, He Rongyue came out of the crowd and looked at Shen Yi who was gently watching Shen Yimo playing. She couldn't help but speak and poured a basin of cold water on him.
Shen Yi and the others may not have experienced similar cases much, so they naturally don't know much about the twists and turns involved.
Although there is a paternity test, there is no doubt that Shen Yimo's custody is in the hands of her mother who raised her since she was a child, and has nothing to do with Shen Yi, the father whom she had never met before.
And they couldn't let Shen Yi take Shen Yimo away without notifying her guardian.
Shen Yi hadn't expected this, but he nodded anyway. "Don't worry, I know. I've already contacted the child's mother, and she should be here soon."
After all, although some things are not explicitly stipulated, they have long been agreed upon. They are all for the purpose of better protecting the safety of children, and he can understand that.
Besides, no matter what, he had to talk to Shen Qingli. The longer he delayed, the worse it would be. He should just talk now...
It’s not bad!
He Rongyue was secretly relieved when she saw Shen Yi expressed his understanding. She was afraid that Teacher Shen would insist on having his own way and take the person away directly. Although there was nothing wrong with that, it would set a bad precedent.
Du Cheng and Uncle Yan delivered their gifts one after another, and even Jiang Feng's cake arrived and was placed on the table. Even Director Zhang heard the news and rushed over.
Just when the Beijiang Branch was packed with people, Shen Qingli finally arrived and slowly walked in from the door. "I shouldn't be late, right?"
The policewoman who led Shen Qingli looked at the leader in the room, then looked at Shen Qingli beside her. There was a glint of gossip in her eyes, but in the end, the desire for a better future prevailed. "Director Zhang, Captain Du, this is Miss Shen."
"Since the person has been brought here, I will leave first."
The policewoman left without saying a word and returned to her workstation. After calming down, she took out her phone and started sharing the news in their internal gossip group:
[Big news, did you all see that? That beautiful woman just now seems to be Xiao Yimo's mother!]
[Really? Xiao Yimo’s mother, that means…]
[Teacher Shen’s…?!]
......
The gossip group within the Beijiang Branch became lively again after a long time because of Shen Qingli's appearance. Everyone was talking about what they knew and envious of Teacher Shen's good fortune.
But the atmosphere in the office at this time was not as harmonious as they imagined. After all, when Shen Qingli arrived, she looked directly at Shen Yi and tilted her head slightly, "Teacher Shen, long time no see..."
"Let's talk?"
Under the aura of Shen Qingli's two-meter-two figure, Shen Yi seemed to become more like a little bird in an instant. Under the worried gazes of Du Cheng and others, he nodded and said, "Okay, let's go out and talk."
Shen Qingli naturally had no objection, but what about Shen Yimo?
She looked up at Director Zhang and the others standing together, a smile on her face. "I believe the people's police will help us look after the children while we peacefully resolve our private dispute, right?"
"Of course not..."
Before Du Cheng could even utter the word "no", Director Zhang pushed him aside and continued the rest of the sentence very naturally, "Of course, this is our duty."
Shen Qingli nodded, then took Shen Yi straight to the nearest coffee shop, chose a good seat, ordered some food, and the two looked at each other in silence.
After a long while, Shen Yi finally broke the silence, "I know Miss Shen called me out to talk to me about Xiao Yimo, but before that, can I ask a question?"
"Were we..."
Shen Yi originally wanted to ask if they knew each other before, but since they already had a child, it seemed a bit redundant to ask such questions.
"Forget it, let's talk about the child. I know that because I didn't know about Xiao Yimo's existence, I missed a lot in her growth. You have worked hard for so many years..."
"But don't worry, I will make it up to you. Although I haven't sold many paintings in the past few years and have basically only been receiving a salary, don't worry, I still have some savings. I will definitely give you and your children the best life, and..."
Seeing that Shen Yi seemed to be going on and on, Shen Qingli quickly interrupted him, "Stop for a moment. I know you really want to compensate Xiao Yimo, but you saw last time that we don't need these."
As soon as Shen Qingli finished speaking, Shen Yi's momentum withered. "Is that so? Then I..."
Shen Yi was stuck for a moment. He had never thought about having a daughter before, so he had never thought about it, but now, he wanted to give her the best things in the world.
But...it seemed that he had nothing to give her.
Shen Yi's thoughts were basically written on his face. Shen Qingli could tell what he was thinking at a glance, but she didn't stop him. Guilt was the only thing that made him treat Shen Yimo, his daughter who suddenly appeared, better. Naturally, it would also make Shen Yimo more willing to accept this new father.
Shen Qingli kept an eye on Shen Yi's mood swings. Seeing that the time was almost right, she interrupted his self-imagination and said, "But you also know that children cannot lack the company and education of their father, so I have never concealed your existence from her."
Shen Yi felt even more guilty after hearing what Shen Qingli said. The child had always known that he was such an incompetent father, and yet he...
"Of course, you don't have to think too much. I've always told her that you just lost your memory. I didn't mean to take the initiative to look for you and disturb your life."
"But I didn't expect Xiao Yimo to miss you so much. After that accidental encounter with you, she has been thinking about looking for you all day long. This time, I don't know how she even found her way to the police station..."
Of course, Shen Qingli couldn't let Shen Yi make up things that didn't exist at all. If he wanted to make up things, he naturally had to follow the materials she provided.
Of course, the most important thing was to get himself and Shen Yimo out of the matter, to characterize everything as an accident, and to put both himself and her in the position of victims.
So when Shen Qingli said this, she was extremely helpless, and even had a hint of disappointment towards Shen Yimo.
